Question

I’m investigating how to implement use case extension points in DOORS requirements. To this end, I wanted to know if a DOORS object in one module can reference or link to a DOORS object in a second module. If so, I figure I can have my use cases with the extension points in a high level module, then I can have extension variations in a separate DOORS module, with each one referencing the DOORS object with the extension point it is instantiating. Any thoughts on that?

You can only link from one object to another. The objects can be in different modules.

Sometimes we wanted to link to a whole module. We created a first “title” object in the module we wanted to link to, and we linked to that.

DOORS is really dismal. Glad we ditched it.
